My body is playing tricks on me

I think I'm around 8DPO. Of course this means that every teeny tiny symptom that my body has is going to be directly correlated to pregnancy in my mind.

I was driving to work today and about got sick in my lap. I had to turn around and zoom home because I felt so sick to my stomach. By the time I got home, in the house, and in the bathroom, it had passed. 8DPO is waaaay too early for nausea but of course my mind went there.

Then I got home today and went to the bathroom. There was brown tinged EWCM when I wiped. Once again I think "Implantation spotting maybe??"

I hate the big question mark of not knowing. I promised my dh that I wouldn't test until I'm a week late. I'm going to keep my promise for the most part. I'm due to start Tuesday, July 12th so I'm going to TRY to wait to test until at least the weekend after that. We'll see... hehe If I make it to Thursday or Friday after that I'm going to be really, really impressed with myself.

I totally understand what you mean with all the symptoms. I do the same thing even though I tell myself not to. I would never be able to wait until I was a week late. If you are able to, you must share your will power secret with us! Good luck!!!

I know I can't wait until I am a week late. I start testing 8dpo. I have no will power.

Ooh I hope you get a BFP when you decide to test. And yes I am the same way when TTC I think everything little thing is a pregnancy sympton. don't think I could wait unitl I was a week late. I always start testing around 10 DPO. The waiting stinks. Good Luck. Praying you get good news.

Last month I took a couple tests and I just knew I was pregnant-- BFN. It stunk. I don't want a repeat of test after test because it builds my excitement too much. This way if I take a test when I'm late, BFN means BFN, not "maybe tomorrow".

I stared at my test though this morning and actually put my hand on it. I pulled back and left for work and I'm proud to admit that my test is still not peed on. hehe

I've taken a test at 12DPO and had it be BFN so I'm really going to force myself to wait until at least 14DPO. Again... we'll see. hehe
